From my perspective, it is great to have some zoom capability on your main "walk around" lens. I'm a Canon shooter, and I use a Canon 18-135mm USM lens as my go to "walk-around" lens. It is on my camera about 90% of the time. The Tamron 18-200 would give you a nice range in focal length. The Nikon 18-140 could also be a good choice for your D5200. If you are used to having a zoom on your Nikon CoolPix, the 18-55 kit lens that came with your D5200 may seem limiting.
thank you.
